Nick Montfort: 10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1));:GOTO 10 (2013, MIT Press) 4 stars

Review of '10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1));:GOTO 10' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Deconstruction of a single line maze generation program in Commodore 64 Basic. A ten author collaboration that is mostly interesting. The discussions of what makes a maze and diversions into textiles were not terribly interesting; the deconstruction of an assembly version of the same code was fascinating. Comprehensive list of sources, plenty of relevant illustrations. Would mostly be a good book to base an intro to programming course on.
